NetWare has always supported more than this, so this whole idea of fixed inode tables is somewhat strange to me to start with. I am still looking through Hans code, but if this is accurate I'll just take a system out Monday and see if it works. My only concern with Reiser has to do with the bug reports I've seen on it over the years, but Suse is shipping it as default, and we have been running it here for about a year on a production server. I'll post if it crashes, corrupts data, or has problems.
